To examine genetic interactions among loci necessary for powdery mildew resistance in barley and delineate the downstream pathways driving host cell death.
Conducted genetic epistasis and interaction analyses among defined barley resistance and defense-signaling loci.
Evaluated host cellular responses, fungal infection success, and leaf cell death phenotypes following challenge with powdery mildew.
Identified distinct genetic pathways that independently or differentially mediate plant leaf cell death upon pathogen recognition.
Demonstrated that resistance-associated cell death can be genetically separated into distinct signaling branches rather than a single linear cascade.

Implication

Genetic analysis reveals distinct pathways controlling leaf cell death in barley during fungal attack, indicating multiple regulatory routes for plant disease resistance.
